I am just starting to look around. I have an IH 400 6 RN I was thinking of converting to no-till. There seems to be a lot of different options, including finding a newer planter. There are none locally for sale reasonably priced, I usually have to drive out to mid-ohio or indiana to find anything worthwhile.
But, a farm I drive by every once in a while has amazing stands of crops, and I know he is running brand new equipment. Another farm I pass has equally amazing crops, and I never seem to catch him in teh act, to see what he is using.
A lot of times, the thought of buying a used no-till scares me. Why would they get rid of it? does that mean they don't think it does a good enough job?
If you could think of one (6 RN or smaller) that does a fantastic job with both crops, I'd love to hear about it.
Oh, and if anyone has an IH 400 set-up for no-till, I want to hear how you did it!
